I used this generator during the tropical storm Isahiea that just passed thru the east coast of the United States in early August. Started out as a hurricane but when it reached us it was a tropical storm with high winds and heavy rain. I have 5 kids the youngest are twins of 18 months. I need something dependable and this did the job over and above. The generator ran for over 15 straight hours when we had no power. Ran the television and both refrigerators and a fan. The babies even took their nap and the generator was quit enough that it did not wake them.

I bought this generator for whole house back up power. I specifically picked this model because it was dual fuel. I have run it extensively on propane because I know that by using propane I don't have to worry about gumming up the generator with old gas. I like the fact I can use gas if I need to. The generator was easy to set up, easy to break in, and starts on the 1st or 2nd pull every time. It does run as advertised for the lengths given on propane. 3500 watts is enough to power my house (gas range, gas water heater, gas furnace). I love knowing that I have the power needed if I get a power outage. The generator has a nice small footprint, easy to move, and looks good. It feels like it will give me years of trouble free use. Overall I'd recommend this and Champion brand generators to my friends and family. I'm already thinking of buying a smaller one for camping.

I purchased this generator at a fair price, easier than I thought to get going. The only thing is I'm a counter and it says I'm going to get 9 hours of run time and I only got 7 and a half. Very dark without power in my neighborhood and I don't want to be replacing gas, when I already counted my hours for a tank of gas.

These gen sets are great. I use it to power up parts of our home during power outages during storms. I've powered window unit a/c's, the fridge, deep freezer, and several other appliances. I even bought a second unit to power more of the house. The extra 30 amp generator cord is great too. It has 3 taps so it can power multiple devices at once. I've yet to run either of mine on gasoline. But I can tell you the propane side is extremely efficient and also seems to have less exhaust fumes than gas powered engines. A 20lb propane cylinder (standard grill size) will last thru a few multi hour blackouts, depending on electrical load.

We recently had a tornado pass through , I purchased the Champion generator prior to the tornado. All I done was pour the oil that came with the generator then I filled the gas tank with a good quality gasoline. the instructions on how to operator the generator were easy to understand ,I really liked the large photo lay out with all components numbered. The generator started right up , and functioned as promised . Outstanding product , I would purchase again and recommend to everyone.

I bought this generator for the dreaded power outage. It will be a nice piece of mind to have in the Michigan winters. I know my family will stay warm. Product had some shipping damage right out of the box. Customer service was good with getting what I needed to get it fixed. It did take a little time and a couple of phone calls, but in the end the generator runs and makes power.

I bought this generator for the hurricane season. What convinced me was the fact that i could hook it up to our propane tank at home. Plus i didnt want to spend thousand of dollars for a generator. For this powerful one, the price is by far the best. It has lots of power. I can run two big refrigerators, my TV and a few lights, without problems. It is really easy to start and it starts every time without any trouble. The only thing is to move it around. Its pretty heave and has no wheels, so two people are required to move it.

I use it mostly for using tools in places with no power, and as a back up if i ever lose power. The dual fuel is what I found attractive about it. It all works great. My only negative is i wish it had wheels because its heavy and hard for one person to move.

Living in California and our new fire season power outages my family and i didn't want to be caught un prepared. Decided on the dual fuel because propane storage is simple and if we needed we can always pull gasoline from a car if the nearby gas station goes down. The initial product was damaged in shipping, not a fault of Champion's. Once i notified them, they were very helpful and quick to assist with assessing and providing a replacement. Instructions for set up were clear and easy to follow. Break in was simple and equipment runs great! This is one of the best pieces of equipment I own that brings piece of mind and portability for camping.

I use the Champion Generator for power outages.I like the fact that we can run it on propane. That way we do not have to store gasoline which can sour. We keep 4 propane tanks handy for that purpose so we could run the generator for up to 35 hours.Also the generator can run multiple appliances at the same time.
